PETALING JAYA: Parents of Form Five students are confident about letting their children go back to school as long as only exam year students are allowed to do so.
Joy Tan, whose Form Five son studies in a boarding school in Kuala Lumpur, said the environment in his school was more controlled.
“If schools implement tight SOPs, I think it will be good for the kids in exam classes to move on.
“The children are already burning out but we need the cooperation of teachers, parents and students for this to work well, ” she said, adding that discipline was key.

KUALA LUMPUR, Jan 10 The National Union of the Teaching Profession (NUTP) hopes the Sijil Pelajaran Malaysia (SPM) examination scheduled to be held in February will proceed as planned, despite the concern of the rising Covid-19 cases lately.
Its president, Aminuddin Awang, said NUTP did not want the excellent status of the SPM to be affected because the certificate is also recognised in many countries and is equivalent to the General Certificate of Secondary Education (GCSE) in the United Kingdom.

KUALA LUMPUR, Dec 31 After the Congress of Unions of Employees in the Public and Civil Services (Cuepacs), the National Union of the Teaching Profession (NUTP) also objected to the two new service circulars issued by the Public Service Department (PSD) which would take effect from tomorrow (Jan 1).
NUTP secretary-general Harry Tan Huat said PSD should first consult with all members of the coalition in the National Joint Council (MBK) before implementing the circulars and not ignore the voice and rights of the workers.
The two circulars are Service Circular No. 6 of 2020 Employer-Employee Relations Policy in Public Service-National Joint Council and Service Circular No. 7 of 2020 Employer-Employee Relations Policy in Public Service-Department Joint Council (MBJ).
